The staff seem to all be experienced craftspeople and are so helpful because they share their knowledge and experience. I will say, it would be awesome of they stocked weaving supplies since that doesn't seem to be a thing in Pittsburgh.

A cute little speciality shop selling mostly Japanese import goods like figures, manga and misc…read moreitems like Japanse stationary, plushies and general goods like good luck charms, small seasonal statues, and book marks. It is a little hard to find (Hense the Secret) but look for Rockin Cat Cafe and its to the left, up a flight of steps. I didn't see any disabled entrances, so keep that in mind if you visit and need accommodations. The shop is quiet but the woman who helped us was pleasant and answered any questions we had. They had anime music playing in the background but not so loud that it was overbearing. Price wise it's on par with Barnes and Noble and 2nd Charles but the selection is much better and varied/unique. I ended up just buying a good luck charm but plan to visit again when we're in the area.

I had a terrible experience working with this vendor. Most of the envelopes printed by her had…read moreentire numbers/letters rubbed completely off by the time they were received by my guests. I am incredibly embarrassed by the way the envelopes didn't hold up & communicated this to the vendor - she directed the blame to everything including myself, the post office, down to the types envelopes I purchased, she neglected to take full responsibility for her work product. Of everything in the wedding process, these envelopes were the most time consuming & disappointing. After several messages back & forth (filled with excuses and finger pointing) she gave me a partial refund but neglected to provide me the partial refund for my separate purchase for the specialty white ink which was also part of my order. I will never work with her again. *UPDATE: Upon receiving the response from vendor feel the need to once again point out that my order was split into two transactions, as I had to complete a second order (upcharge) for the use of white ink. I see the two orders as the same order as it was for one finished product (envelope addressing). The vendor provided a partial refund for the first portion of the order but did not provide partial refund for the upcharge in ink (again, this was through a second order but for the same envelopes).
